Transcript of a Brian Tracy YouTube Q&A where he explains how to set and plan goals: choose the single most impactful goal, write it down, break it into daily steps, and take at least one action every day toward it. Emphasizes "think on paper," programming goals into the subconscious, and consistent daily action (seven days a week).
Hello, my name is Brian Tracy. I get a lot of questions from my friends on social media and I've decided to answer some of them as we go along. Here's a question we received recently, Brian. How do I make a plan for my goals and how do I narrow down those goals to day to day tasks? The subject of goals is something that I have worked on for many years. Your ability to set goals and to make plans for their accomplishment and then to work on your plans each day will do more to guarantee your success than anything else in the world. And the rule is think on paper. Think on paper. Imagine that you had a magic wand and you could wave this magic wand and then ask yourself, if I could achieve only one goal in life, which one goal would have the greatest positive impact on my life? And write it down. Now don't worry if it takes more time and money and resources than you think you have. Your job is to be clear about what you want and write it down. When you write it down, you actually program it into your subconscious mind. Your subconscious mind like a computer operator then hands it to your superconscious mind and that activates the law of attraction and you begin to attract people and circumstances into your life to achieve the goal. And the final part is for you to do something every single day to achieve your most important goal. Make a list of every single step that you could take and add to the list as you think of new steps. And then do something every day that moves you at least one step closer. Seven days a week. Never miss a day. And you will be astonished at what will happen to you in the months ahead. I hope that answer was helpful to you, and if it was, be sure to take action and take action now.
